Odd that the article didn’t identify it as a NORAD Aerostat critical to our defense system. Wash DC radio station did id it as such. Though they did soft peddle the type of equipment it carried. “Just routine air traffic, weather data type stuff”.
Right then. Send out the interceptors.

Shoot it down before those dastardly Canadians get their hands on it.

It's the SS Rosie O'Donnell, so we aren't quite sure.

I think the Chinese blimp just scored a kill.

I was thinking that someone might shoot it down with their rifle before the F-16’s get to it. I wasn't thinking rifle ...

I was just gonna say, it’s a boy blimp. Is the other one female or should we not assume that?

No matter how carefully they’re prepared, they’re still inedible.
